Financial Terrorism

July 31, 2002

I think that all of us should congratulate people like Scott Sullivan and Bernie Ebbers of WorldCom as well as Kenneth Lay and his group at Enron. There are many others like them, but these are the ones that stand out.

These people have managed to do to the United States what al-Qaida and other enemy groups have never been able to do. They have managed to cripple us financially as well as ruin the lives of millions of hard working and honest Americans. Their personal greed, ambition and ego eclipsed everything else.

I can only try to imagine how our enemies are sitting back and laughing at us. These people made it so easy for them. Terrorists murdered thousands of Americans and destroyed two magnificent buildings. Our own countrymen however, are destroying us from within.
